Still there may be some players out there that want/can only deal with id3v2 set on m4* files? >A configuration mechanism is a good idea, but I think it will have be based a >full mapping of get_iplayer fields -> MP3 frames -> MP4 atoms.

It seems everyone has their own solution, id3v2 is very outdated and you can't set APIC as you say, as well as ... TDRL for example - so I doubt if anyone is really using it (?). Actually its the underlying id3lib which is outdated. I have tweaked these two to get some simple tags (TDRL) working but not for complex tags. I did once see a project to update these libs to newer tags but the fact i can't find it now on the web shows ... something. >The alternative would be come up with some sort of integrated tagging plugin, >but I'm not sure it's worth the bother. I've been using mutagen, so I don't >know whether the available perl modules are even up to the task. In the end I use a small perl lib I wrote which uses MP3:Tag. It can set all the tags I need, including APICs etc. JC _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
